About bathroom resealing in FK11
Across FK11, the joints we reseal are the ones that fail in any home: the long edge of the bath, the base of the shower tray, the back of the basin and the line along the worktop. Each one is stripped, cleaned and dried before new silicone goes in. We work on wet rooms, baths and kitchen worktops & upstands, and people most often call us about black mould in the silicone that won’t clean off and shrunken sealant along the back of a worktop.
At the end, we look at the finished work together and explain the cure time. The visit itself normally takes two to three hours for a typical bath, depending on how much old sealant there is, depending on the size of the job.
- We protect the area and cut out all of the old sealant, including the film left on the tiles.
- We clean and degrease the joint and treat any mould.
- We let it dry fully and fill the bath with water before sealing.
- New anti-fungal silicone goes on in a colour to suit and is tooled to a clean finish.
- We tidy up and give you the cure time, generally around 24 hours.
What you will pay

Bathrooms and kitchens across FK11
In FK11, bathroom resealing takes in flats, houses, rentals and businesses, in Menstrie and well beyond. Wherever the job is, all the old material comes out before anything new goes in.
We work across all of Scotland, from the cities to the islands, and FK11 is part of that. Longer journeys are planned in advance, and outdoor work around the weather.
Menstrie: Managing a site like Lornshill Academy? Then washroom and kitchen sealant there needs the same care as at home, and schools and businesses are part of our work as well as homes. If you let a flat or house near Alloa station, mouldy sealant is one of the first things a new tenant notices, so it’s worth renewing between lets.
What affects the quote in FK11
The quote reflects the job in front of us. We look at:
- Any mould that needs treating
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
- Access and height
- The type of sealant required
Rather than a set price list, we look at what your job involves: the amount of work, the old material and the access. The price is agreed before we begin.
Helping us quote
Photos help, but a description is a good start. Please mention:
- Photos by email, if that’s easy
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
- Where the property is
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
A good description makes for an accurate quote. Let us know the location, the problem and roughly how many joints.
Should I try it myself first?
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again, so just mention it when you contact us.
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.
Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so we plan the work room by room around your bookings where we can. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.
Letting agents often deal with us directly. Send the address, what’s needed and the access arrangements and we’ll quote.
Common problems we fix in FK11
Silicone doesn’t last for ever. Every shower, every splash and every wipe with a cleaner slowly wear it down, so its life depends on how the room is used, cleaned and aired.
Common reasons people contact us include:
- Gaps where the bath or tray has moved
- Gaps between the worktop and the wall
- Lumpy, uneven sealant from a DIY attempt
- Water getting behind the bath panel
Why deal with it now?
A failed joint gets more costly to put right the longer it’s left. Once water is behind the bath, it can reach floorboards, panels and the ceiling underneath, and that is a far bigger job than a reseal.
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether all the old sealant comes out first
- Whether the sealant suits the joint
- Whether you can choose the colour
- Whether they’re fully insured
FK11 questions
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. ARBOMaster is the approved applicator scheme for Arbo sealants, and we’re part of it.
How long does a bath or shower reseal take?
A single bath or shower takes about a couple of hours, old sealant removal included. A full bathroom and kitchen can take most of a day.
Are you insured?
Yes. Mr Mastic is fully insured.
Is it OK to put new sealant on top of the old bead?
No, and it’s one of the main reasons reseals fail. The old joint is stripped, cleaned and resealed from scratch.
What does bathroom resealing cost?
Size, access and the old material all affect the cost. Ask us for a quote and we will talk you through it.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes. All our work comes with a 12-month guarantee.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course. Doing several areas at once is usually more efficient.
